Frequently Asked Questions

What is the control basis of the LEDBLADE system?

The LEDBLADE led strip system offers seamless control via its new core, the CRE:ON HD unit which is a power supply and a digital led strip controller card in one case serving as a “Hybrid Drive”.

It supports the most common control protocols, such as ArtNet / sACN / Kling-Net standards and has the ability to control 1,000 pixels.

What is the maximum cable length between two LEDBLADE led strip units?

It is 4 meters when using a single CRE:ON HD unit on full load with 1,000 pixels.

The distance between the units is important because of the power loss on the cables.

More CRE:ON HD units (ONLY IN BYPASS MODE) can be used in one line (e.g. one at the start of the line, and another one at the end of it, or after a longer extension another one can be used) this way even a 10 to 15 m extension can be managed easily.

What cables should I use?

Please use cat5e or higher ranked cable for daisy chain CREONs and standard connectors for best result.

On the output and between the LEDBLADE units use at least 3×1,5mm2 cables.

How can I drive more than 1,000 pixels with CRE:ON HD?

Several CRE:ON HD units can be daisy chained.

How many CRE:ON HD units can be connected in daisy-chain?

We suggest ten (10) CRE:ON HD units to be connected in daisy chain as maximum.

Can I use the LEDBLADE system in Broadcast environments?

Yes, it is fully flicker free and totally camera friendly.

The system’s frequency matches the multiple of the Camera’s refresh rates.
